Really hope for an almost $1k t shirt that they would have cleaned up the back of the embroidery

For sure. I'm leaning fake but it was with some other hypebeast stuff so I gambled the $6.99 in canuck bucks to present it to you gents.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I dunno. I have been pretty disappointed by the lack of quality on most brands, hypebeast or otherwise. Profits are king, QC is way back in the back burner. In the thrift you have to try and look at the tell-tale signs of what makes something legit or fake, but it’s sad when you’re in the actual store of a brand looking at their stuff and realize that their quality isn’t any better...

@impuntura and @dadjeans are both blind for fakes.

I still stand by what I said @impuntura . That heat stamping doesn’t look correct to my eyes. Also the back of the snaps are engraved pretty poorly.

You need to lie down and take a nap

@impuntura I don’t think the bee is supposed to be all one tone of metal too. Yours looks to be all metallic gold, while all the other examples have the wings and body with darker spots.

Fake. All of the tags are wrong. Good find though.

Frenchie wallet looks legit.

 

[speckledstuff]

Don’t normally grab things not for personal but these were too good to pass up (paid up but at true thrift store). Gutted they are two sizes too big.

Hey, I managed a (small) pile of clothes from a boot sale today. Woop

Tags look period for late 80s. I think it's the same jacket as the one in this ad.

 

[LiamD]

I wore Diadora for soccer in the 80s

Never had Diadora fitba boots, it was Adidas World Cups/Mondial or Puma Kings or nothing.
I'd make an exception for these bad boys if they'd been around then though.

 

[impuntura]

So here's a strange one for ya.i sold a almost identical watch (top) last night and then today I find another one (bottom) but this time with the original crown and hands and in much better shape .same movement one year apart I think becaue this one has a screw on back.

 

[impuntura]

Any drummers here ?

 

[eazye]

Mcm guys. Thought this was a no brainer at $6. Needs a cleaning but overall in good shape. Any of you guys know who the designer is?
